Dicranin is a 15-lipoxygenase (15-LOX) inhibitor and bacterial agent. Dicranin inhibits the dioxygenation reaction of polyenoic fatty acids by irreversibly binding to lipoxygenase. Dicranin can be isolated from the phospholipids of Philonotis fontana, Leptodontium paradoxum, and Dicranum scoparium. Dicranin can be used in studies related to Gram-positive bacterial infections.
